Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote approximately ten years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact many podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received significant medical training with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are studied to care for problems ranging from conventional afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience vital to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet frequently experience.
